Hogwarts Blood Wizard

Chapter 578 I am not giving you another lesson, Hals!

"The reason why the Ministry of Magic classifies some spells as black magic is that these spells are generally highly lethal, and deep black magic such as the killing curse requires the caster to have a strong killing intent..."

Ivan was talking in the closed Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom. He talked for several minutes. After thinking about it, he didn't miss anything, and he couldn't stop.

"I only know so much...Professor!" Ivan said at last.

Moody looked at Ivan with a weird look. He was just asking for a starting point to explain the dark magic to the students, but he didn't want Ivan to say everything he was going to say later.

"Professor?" Ivan asked tentatively when Moody hadn't responded for a long time.

"Ah? You said very well! Gryffindor adds 10 points!" Moody quickly reacted to Ivan's reminder, said coarsely, and then turned to look at other students. .

"As Hals said, many dark magics require malicious intent from the caster in order to exert their true power. This is why Hogwarts does not teach dark magic publicly..."

"I have seen many talented wizards. They are immersed in the powerful power of black magic, and they have devoted themselves to the research of deep black magic, so that their temperament has changed..."

"In my years as an Auror, I have captured at least two dozen such wizards. They are either dead or staying in Azkaban!"

Moody's words were very sharp, coupled with his scarred face, made the hearts of the little wizards present chill.

For a while, there was silence in the Defence Against the Dark Arts class until Ivan suddenly spoke.

"Professor Moody, do you think wizards should not learn black magic?"

Ivan was a little curious about how the legendary Auror viewed the issue of black magic.

Ever since he realized the effect of snake eyes and black magic knowledge on temperament during the summer vacation, he has been wondering whether he should continue to study.

The Slytherin students also looked at Moody nervously. They had learned two-handed curses more or less, and some belonged to the category of black magic.

"Of course we shouldn't learn those evil black magic..." Before Moody could answer, Hermione couldn't help but speak.

However, to Hermione's expectation, Moody interrupted her directly."No! Miss Granger, I don't think wizards need to completely isolate themselves from black magic..."

"You mean, do you agree with us to learn black magic?" Hermione asked in surprise. She thought that a legendary Auror like Moody would resist black magic very much.

"I mean we have to know some dark magic knowledge to know how to deal with them!"

As Moody explained, he was pacing in the classroom with his wooden prosthetic legs, his eyes scanned across the faces of every student.

After a pause, he continued.

"Just now I just wanted to remind you not to indulge in it, and don't try to learn dangerous magic beyond your ability. It's best...Don't do research privately, this is very important!"

"In fact, I suggested to your Principal Dumbledore two days ago to let go of some low-risk dark magic for upper-class students.

It’s better to be taught by a teacher than you think about it yourself..."

Moody's hoarse, dull tone kept reverberating in the closed classroom. He didn't think blindly banning the teaching of black magic is a good thing, because these students always have the opportunity to come into contact with black magic.

For example, the Hogwarts Forbidden Book Zone is a good way to gain knowledge of dark magic. Every year, some smart little wizards learn by themselves by reading books and master a lot of advanced dark magic.

However, due to lack of guidance, one day the path may go astray...

After Moody finished speaking, the little wizards present whispered to discuss.

Ivan feels that Moody's ideas are very appetizing for him. He always believes that there is no need to be afraid of black magic. Proper research and learning are necessary.

If it were to be completely banned, the principals of the past generations would not allow these profound dark magic books to be stored in the forbidden book area.

The significance of Hogwarts’s Defence Against the Dark Arts class may be to let the professor guide the students to carefully understand the knowledge of the Dark Arts and protect themselves from harm.

Unfortunately, due to Voldemort's curse over the past few decades, most of the Defence Against the Dark Arts class professors have failed to play their due role.

"Okay... Stop it, if you have any ideas you can discuss when get out of class is over, or come to me directly after class!" Moody's right hand grabbed the cane and tapped on the ground. Let everyone's attention come.

"Now, I want to ask, does anyone know what the worst black magic is?" Moody looked at the little wizards and asked.

"The Imperius Curse, the Heart Drilling Curse, and the Killing Curse I just mentioned! According to Ministry of Magic regulations, they are all unforgivable curses! If they are released against someone and caught by the Auror, the caster will be locked up. Enter Azkaban!" Ivan answered immediately.

Seeing that Ivan once again got up to answer without consent, Moody's scarred face was crumpled together, and he continued to ask angrily."Then do you know why these spells are listed as unacceptable..."

Ivan rushed to answer without waiting for Moody to finish this time.

"One of the reasons for being listed as an unforgivable curse is that there is no corresponding counter-curse. For example, once hit by the killing curse, the person who hits the curse will be instantly deprived of life, and this process cannot be reversed!"

"Although the Imperius Curse can be resisted by will, it is also included because the large number of wizards controlled by the Imperius Curse caused a lot of trouble to the Ministry of Magic in the last Wizarding War."

"As for the drill curse... I think it's probably because the magic that can torture people to death is too inhuman!" Ivan said hesitantly, and finally looked at Moody.

"Is there anything else I haven't said? Professor?"

"I need to remind you that I am not teaching you alone! Hals..." Moody glared at Ivan. If you have finished speaking, what should I say?

"Well, professor, I will pay attention next time." Yifan also felt a little embarrassed, but the system prompt in his mind made him want to stop.

Moody didn't know what Ivan was thinking. He mistakenly thought that Ivan had realized the mistake, so he nodded in satisfaction, and then added.

"What you just said is very detailed, but I need to correct you one thing, Hals! Although the Killing Curse is powerful, it needs a powerful magical power as a foundation.

If you use to me..."

Moody looked at Ivan, swallowed the words that had arrived, and pointed his cane to Harry and Ron on the side.

"I mean, if you recite Avada's life to me, the spell will probably not work, at most I might have a nosebleed!"
